The First Snow

Yesterday was the first big snow of the season. It was a clean and crisp white winter wonderland outside and a warm and cozy haven inside. The furry little ones were NOT feeling the cold and wet outdoors, instead chose to nestle under blankets for most of the day, making it so hard not to join them. One of the challenges of working from home is resisting the urge to end every work day early to nap alongside my favorite four-legged nuggets in a Netflix haze of snuggles. Instead I worked until 10pm prepping for today’s big shoot, but man oh man, it took all the restraint I have. Here’s to a short shoot so I can join these fools under the blankets earlier this evening.
